• Timing out from lack of activity.
• Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition.
Your notebook’s system memory typically stores the files on which you are working, open application information,
and any other data required to support the operations in progress. When you resume operation from Sleep mode,
your notebook will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power and Suspend/Resume button to
resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your notebook will not resume‘.
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) Feature
The Hibernation feature saves the contents of your notebook’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the
Suspend/Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature.
The Hibernation feature saves the contents of your notebook’s system memory to the hard drive, then turns all power
off. You can enable or disable this feature.
To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these steps:
1 From the Modern Start screen, press [Windows]+[X].Select Control Panel from the menu, then select Power
Options.
2 Select “Choose what the power button does” or “Choose what closing the lid does”, then make your selections (Do
Nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down).
• IF RUNNING YOUR NOTEBOOK ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR NOTEBOOK IS IN SLEEP
MODE, THOUGH NOT AS FAST AS WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL.
• DISABLING THE POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME BUTTON PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT THE NOTEBOOK INTO SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-
TO-DISK) MODE. THE BUTTON RESUME FUNCTION CANNOT BE DISABLED.
• IF YOUR NOTEBOOK IS ACTIVELY ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE NOT
LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD
DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE.
• THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) IS THAT POWER IS NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN YOUR DATA. THIS IS
PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF YOU WILL BE LEAVING YOUR NOTEBOOK IN A SUSPENDED STATE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. THE DRAWBACK
OF USING HIBERNATION MODE IS THAT IT LENGTHENS THE POWER DOWN AND POWER UP SEQUENCES AND RESETS PERIPHERAL DEVICES.
